"This was our second visit to the restaurant, and unfortunately, it did not live up to our first experience. The service was poor, and the atmosphere was not as good as before. It seemed like there may have been a change in management or the manager was no longer there. They had loud music playing, not just background music, but bands like The Killers, which gave more of a bar vibe than a nice restaurant feel. Initially, we thought there was a party happening in the back room, but the music was only in our dining area and seemed to be more for the staff than the customers. The food was okay, but it was overshadowed by the disappointing service and loud music."

Excellent food with incredible flavours, something very different to the usual Northcote Road fare. Will keep coming back.

The food was amazing. Restaurant was empty (which I found odd given the quality of the food). Music was too loud and not relevant at all to the type of restaurant. Service was ok. I definitely would go back for the food.

The restaurant has a lovely ambiance and atmosphere, but unfortunately, the portions were small, the prices were high, and three out of our six Meze dishes were burnt. I would not recommend this place and would not dine here again.

Unfortunately, the service really left this place. The restaurant looks like the part, but our waitress forgot our drinks orders and couldn't explain the menu. The food was cold (if hot) and the lamb was dry and boiled. All in all, very disappointing. The cocktail was good!

I thought the restaurant was okay. The house red wine was excellent, but some dishes were not as impressive. The aubergine dish was bland and lacked flavor, tasting primarily of cigarette smoke. The lamb was delicious, as were the chicken wings and halloumi fries. However, considering the prices, I wasn't overly impressed.

Lovely meal at Jan with good food particularly the hanger steak. Service was good, reasonably priced drinks and lovely ambience. We were advised 3 4 dishes each but 11 between 4 of us was perfect. Tables could do with being slightly bigger but with one taken away to provide more space in between as the waiting staff kept knocking chairs when squeezing past.

The food here is just lovely, refreshing dishes ingredients, which are cooked very well. The menu could be deemed slightly limited, but everything which I’ve ordered from it is just excellent. £30 per head for brunch dish, selection of tapas dishes to share, dessert, tea. All excellent, with very unobtrusive service! Great spot, although sad to see we were the only diners.

This in the third time I've been to Jan which proves i'm a fan...but my most recent visit wasn't good atall. Service was slow, food came in bits over the course of an hour. Two dishes were missing and we communicated this to the staff, despite this the dishes showed up as we were waiting for dessert. Miscommunication between staff members and the error seemed to be our fault. Usually Jan is wonderful so disappointed overall...hopefully this was a one off!

Their reservation system made a mistake with our booking so we had to sit at the bar for 45 minutes. Not the end if the world, we just had a cocktail while we waited. Food wise they twice forgot the order of a side salad, the hangar steak was overcooked and the blackened sweet potato was a bit meh. But the homemade hummus was insanely good, the fried haloumi was tasty as hell and the lamb koftas were really good. Overall it had really bad and really good points, so a bit tough to judge. The service was very good and the staff offered us complimentary drinks due to the reservation mistake. So all in all, it was a good evening.
